Amazingly, there are still some people who don’t think we landed on the moon. These people are complete idiots, to put it kindly. Back in 2002, Buzz Aldrin punched one of those idiots after being followed and harassed at a hotel in Beverly Hills.

Ultimately, no charges were filed. Probably because any judge would’ve asked that idiot moon hoaxer to approach the bench and done the same as Aldrin.
